while the count fortune-hunter waited-with a priest ( who had not the best character in the world , and who was unprovided with any ecclesiastical authority } at another spot . Every requisite had been provided to carry off the innocent victim ; hut Providence stepped in to render abortive the whole machination ; for the mother , apprised of all preparations , had wisely taken her daughter to Regoa , and General Baron de fonnd that the . assaalting party to which he and his colleagues were treacherously to open the gates of the citadel , had been unnecessarily equipped- To follow the fugitives to Begoa was found impracticable , for the people there had armed and nlaced themselves in battle array , preparing to
sound the tocsin on the first alarm . The widow , however , not considering her daughter secure from a surprise , demanded a military escort , and went to Lamego under their protection , intending to enter a convent for security , but the abbess refused to receive her , offering to take the young lady , which of course the mother declined . AH the papers of the kingdom have raised the cry of disdain against those who had or are supposed to have liad any part in the attempted abduction ; and such has been the feelings in Oporto , that the count has disappeared from the hotel , leaving his baggage and warlike stores behind , him , while tlie people of the ! North are determined to enter the lists of combat , if necessary , to protect the lady . ei Strange assertions are made relative to this affair ; among which are , that the count says he was led into it , and others sayythat titles and decorations were prepared for those who assisted in . bringing it to the desired conclusion .

GRISI AND MEAltIO RATED BY DOLLARS . A Nmw Yo « k paper givos an amusing- account of an Kr ^ -V . "* wus hold to test tho catimution in whioU Qna » and Mario aro to bo held by the citizens of that town . A * tho hour ilxed upon for tho begwrnns-oTiheflalp ' of tickets , there were present int ° h * * 5 perB 0 llB » 8 |» tlwred in front of the ^ Btuge , both on the gmnnd-floor anfl in tho KaUery . At SSo » t ^' ^ ' ^ ^ 0 lMl d < ihiy proceeded to
" Well , gentlemen , " said he , coming forward to the front of the stage , " we will now go on with the sale of the tickets , and we shall sell them for a premium on the prices named . Before I commence , however , I will merely aay that from No . 1 up to 56 , in the front of the gallery , are reserved for the governor and auite . The seats fixed at live dollars are numbered from 600 to 853 inclusive , and from 1100 to 1333 , all of which are in the gallery . All the rest of the seats in the gallery will be disposed of for three dollars . We hare no diagram of the pit , as the lithographer did not have it out in time ; but we will designate the seats by a person holding a red flag over them when they are put up for sale . " A Voice : How many seats bave you reserved for the governor ? Mr . Leeds : From Uo . 1 up to 56 , which are directly in the front line of the gallery . A Voice : What governor do you mean ? (^ Laughter . )
Mr . Leeds : Governor Seymour , the Governor of the State of New York . The Voice : I am a democrat , and that is the reason I ask the question . Mr . Leeds : Yes , sir ; that ' s all right—perfectly right . Now , then , where is the nag-man ? Flag-man : Here 1 am , sir . Mr . Leeds : Well , bold up the flag so as we can all see where you are . There—that will do . No « r gentlemen , we will give you a privilege—we will begin witu No . 600 , and give you . the piivilege of taking ten seats at the premium offered . How much do you bid for 600 ? There it is , you see ; the flag designates the exact place ; it is exactly in front of the sta ^ e , on the ground-floor . How much , gentlemenhow much ? Come .
A Voice : Fifty dollars . " Mr . Leeds : Fifty dollars is bid for it . . Another Voice : Seventy-five . Mr . . Leeds :- ' "Seventy-five .. Come , gentlemen — eighty , ninety , one hundred , one hundred aiid twenty-five , oneTnindired and fifty , one hundred and seventy-fivej two hundred , two hundred and twenty-five , two hundred and fifty . . This is the-. choicest seat . At two hundred and fifty . this seat will be sold if there is no anore bid for it—at two hundred a . nd fi—one more bid for It , or it is gor > e now—two hundred and fifty , going—going—gone , at two hundred and fifty , to Air . Coutts . . ¦ ¦ ¦ . A Voice : Who is Mr . Coutta ? ( Laughter . } Mr . Leeds : Well , gentlemen , in reply to that question ,. I have only to say that I have bad deposited with me fifty pounds sterling , and I pledge you my honour that it is a bond tide sale . I have the money to show for it . Now we
will go on with the rest . As Mr . Leeds did not , however , enlighten the- audience in regard to the purchaser , and as considerable curiosity is manifested in this uuknowri personage , we will endeavour to enlighten the public in regard to her , for she is a-woman , though assuming the name of a man . ^ . It appears that Mario has for a long time past been beset with the attentions of an English lady of great wealth , wlio persists in following him wherever he goes , . although he has frequently denied her an interview . While in London she never was absent a night during his engagement , and always occupied the most conspicuous p lace in front of the stage . When he went to St . Tetersburg she followed him , and on his appearance there one of the first persons he saw- among the brilliant audience
of tho Russian capital was his constant and ardent admirer * In her devotion to him she crossed ocean . and continents , iiud although he has always slighted her attentions and refused to listen to her addresses , her love—if love it can be called —T-has never grown cold , but appears to increase witli timc ^ As soon as she heard of his intention to visit this country , she kept a vigilant watch on his movements , till she found that lie was coming 5 a the Bultic , when she immediately enigaged rooms on board tliat vessel , and accompanied him to this country . On their arrival Mario and Grisi put up at the St . Nicholas , and so did Mr . Coutts ; and now at the first auction of tickets we find him ( we Deg the lady ' s pardonher ) giving two hundred and fifty dollars for the first scat The other seats sold at similar premiums .

RUSSIAN TITLE TO THE CKIMEA , At the ceremony of laying the foundation-stone of a new church to St . Wladimh , who it is said waa baptised in the Crimea , the Archbishop of Tauridoanil ChersOnese argued , in his sermon , that Russia held that country not by right of conquest , but as an original and hereditary portion of tho Muscovite empire , and advised tho oncraies of Russia who were off tho coast at the moment to profit by the aignifleancy of the ceremony : — " Tho laying of tho foundation * stone of this temple lisa greater importanco and interest at this momont .
